Editor's Note:
Five reviews, presented on a quarterly basis, do not seem adequate
to give the reader a true appreciation of the current literature
in acupuncture. We continue to look for support in doing reviews.
The time constraints for someone in private practice and outside
of institutional support are significant. If you are interested
in contributing to this effort please contact editor@acubriefs.com.
The theme of this particular Acubriefs Newsletter is the role
of meta-analyses with regard to acupuncture. I hope you will agree
that an uncritical acceptance of many meta-analyses being published
with regard to acupuncture is unwarranted.
